Whoever picked some of the stories.
  • All of it was a largely unmemorable slog with one teacher being adamant that their interpretation was the only correct one every time, even after they chose a book with a living author and I got it in writing that what the teacher thought was not the author's intent. I actually made use of the business letter lesson from an earlier year...

    Except one class was good and did stick with me. As a result Atwood still has me bugged out over chickie knobs and pigoons, especially now that we pretty much have both. And depression over alex the parrot.

  • He's just like his hero
  • Another chance for me to say phrenology is totally real. Literally all the confirmed awful people just have inexplicably weird shaped heads where something seems not right. It almost makes me want to judge people I don't know anything about based on their head shape, but I've never actually seen anyone with a head weird enough to set off my spidey senses in person.

  • Massive loot from garage sales!
  • Oh man I destroyed 3 of those dance mats. we rewired them to use for stepmania (pc hatswitch had simultaneous opposite direction problems back in the day) and taped them to the ground and gave them a real beat down. The layers actually wore down from trying the pledge furniture polish and socks footslide technique which I quicly hated as damaging. I have now ancient solid decks that could handle it but I still hold a grudge against sliding.

  • Those of you who switched from driving to exclusively cycling: how much have you saved in gas, insurance and repairs?
  • I went from 78-90 bucks of gas a week 2-3 hour per day work commute, 2600 annual insurance, anywhere from 1200-5000 annual mechanic work from parent's friend that totally ripped himself off, to like 60 bucks gas every 4-5 months and the 600 or so it costs for my parents to have my name on their insurance so I can borrow the car once in a while when bike just isn't feasible. oh and bcaa I kept because they will pick you up if you are biking too, associate member on parents account to cheap out a little.

  • Trying to convert my bike into an ebike. What do I need?
  • I've tested one of these that a friend had. I feel like if I bought and installed that I would resent it, the money I spent on it, and myself for not just spending a bit more and getting a stronger motor. If its someone living in flatsville, flatoslavia where the biggest hill is only recognizable by ants... no who am I kidding, I'd just ride a non electric fixie or 3 speed igh.

  • Trying to convert my bike into an ebike. What do I need?
  • I actually kinda like front drive but it has to be torque sensor on the bb, and very dialed in. It gets this pseudo-dual drive feel. It was less of an assist and more of a mirroring what my legs put in to the rear, except for when the gears changed 2 or more positions. If there was a reliable way to track gears and match the motor output I would have kept that bike. Realistically though I would also recommend mid, especially for hilly routes.

    What kind of bottom bracket did you have? I'm still not familiar with all of them but so far the ones I worked with haven't been that troublesome sounding.

  • Farm/Euclid: Stasis Device System
  • That's pretty cool. Is it actually all well documented somewhere and I just missed it? I sure didn't learn much from just playing the game but I only really played up to the anomaly and did a few group missions then got my frigate before getting stuck in house moving limbo with my computers packed away.

  • dualshock 4 mobo side socket for usb ribbon

    !1000010053

    I need a replacement for the white plastic socket that the usb/charge board plugs in to. I used hot air to pull out a drifting stick but that also heated and fell off, and of absolutely fucking course, fell into the floor air vent and went on a grand old slippy slide away.

    Does anyone know the actual name for this part? Everything I have tried searching so far is apparently wrong

    North Van–Burnaby in the winter

    Is anyone familiar with what the iron workers memorial bridge foot/bike path is like in the winter? My new work commute goes over the bridge and I'm wondering if it is viable in the snow or if I should budget for having a car by then. Also the state of the trans canada trail from where it meets the bridge to willingdon would affect my planning. I have heard snow on the roads is poorly managed in Burnaby and I don't like biking on them to bevin with so I'm a bit worried. The north van side I have already seen and its a mixed bag of both excellent and awful. Maybe its a city and district difference but I've seen atv plows clearing bike lanes and other parts where the bike lane has snow above my head height. I have a second bike configured for snow and with mid drive electric motor now.

    ID help

    Saw these while looking at apartments but have no idea what they are. they were found mostly on carpet, but some were in other parts of the unit.

    edit: after looking up the suggestion of carpet beetle I am fairly convinced that it is indeed what they are. I also saw a few adult beetles that look like one of the species found in photos online. thanks everyone.

    Reverse emmc/microsd adapter

    So I used something like these some years ago to recover data off a phone, but I was wondering if the reverse is possible in having a bga soldered adapter with a microsd slot on top. Or if PCBs can even be soldered together like that. I've never actually checked if bga chips have raised pads or something. The purpose would be for rapidly testing custom firmware for shitty old devices that were designed to be replaced without removing the emmc to flash it separately.

    Companion plants

    Its been a decade or two since I've had any sort of plants growing but when I was last trying to grow I was looking into companion plants. There are some that are pretty much ancient standards like beans corn and squash, but does anyone know plants that have a similar beneficial relationship with cannabis?

    Is there much performance difference in ad blocking options?

    I'm currently using the blocklists included with unbound in opnsense on a mini PC and I have used pihole on a pi which now operates my 3d printers instead. I haven't tried any of the other network wide options. Has anyone made any blog posts or similar detailing performance testing of different options?

    I have an 8 person household with each person having at least a phone and computer and probably some consoles or something. I haven't noticed any obvious differences but whitelisting seemingly can't be done in bulk efficiently with my current setup.

    We are all going to be moving in the coming months so I am revisiting different aspects of the home network and trying to figure out what can be improved and if anything is irritating enough in it's current state to tolerate a potential performance loss.

    Does anyone know what to call this sort of fan optimization or have any reading material on how it works or how to design them?

    I'm trying to find out what purpose this type of design serves and how they are designed but have hit a wall with knowing what to even look for.

    This piece of the voron stealthburner is the only example I can think of off the top of my head but I have seen them before in some sort of fan duct or funnel thing.

    I've been doing modding on the deck with just the deck.

    So I've run mods on a bunch of different games which were downloaded and installed with the deck alone. No man's sky, lethal company, Subnautica, etc. with generally no problems but some modding software run through wine had visual bugs but the games worked as intended.

    So I thought I'd try something bigger and install fallout ttw. I installed the base games from gog without issue, and MO2 ran fine with my overridden default of wine-ge. Even the ttw installer seems to work... slowly. I started it two days ago and the picture is now. I guess some mods you really are better off using a beefier computer and transferring the final product.

    Any hayate no gotoku experts able to identify a chapter?

    I'm looking for a chapter where hayate faces off against a group referred to as something along the lines of elite four. It may have been four devas/kings/etc. instead. Rather than four though there were way more, they were censored, yet clearly major characters from several popular anime at the time. I recall lelouche and the four main pilots of 0 Gundam, but there were more.

    I feel like it was closer to the beginning than the end but it's actually such a slog rereading it and I'm starting to feel like I might be wrong, and my guessing has not worked out.
